What wood fences in San Castle actually involves
Local conditions change the job. Here's what's specific to San Castle, Palm Beach County.
Wind-borne debris requirements
San Castle fences still have to meet Florida wind-load requirements for post embedment and spacing, even outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Under-set posts are the reason so many fences here lean after one storm season.
Salt-air exposure in San Castle
San Castle sits about 2 miles from the ocean, where salt shortens the life of both the wood and the hardware. Sealing on all six sides — including the cut ends and the buried section — is what buys the extra years.
Permits and inspections
San Castle is unincorporated, so fence permits and the height and setback rules that come with them are handled by Palm Beach County.
Where San Castle sits
San Castle is an unincorporated pocket of Palm Beach County about 1.4 miles southwest of Lantana, bordered by Hypoluxo, Lantana and Manalapan. Because it has no city hall of its own, wood fences here is permitted and inspected by the county — and we already run the same crews through the surrounding municipalities, so scheduling doesn't change.

Wood Fence Installation in San Castle — FAQs
Do I need a permit for wood fences in San Castle, FL?+
In most cases, yes. San Castle is an unincorporated community, so permits and inspections go through Palm Beach County rather than a city building department. We handle the filing and the inspection scheduling.
Does being close to the ocean change wood fences in San Castle?+
Significantly. San Castle is about 2 miles from the Atlantic, and salt-laden air corrodes fasteners and hardware and keeps exterior wood damp far longer than it stays damp inland. We spec corrosion-resistant hardware and coatings for San Castle properties rather than treating it like an inland job.
How long does a wood fence last in Florida?+
A pressure-treated wood fence that's properly sealed can last 15–20 years in South Florida. We stain and seal to protect against sun and moisture.
